Video Killed the Radio Star...

Man, I'm really starting to show my age!

MTV turns 25 tomorrow (August 1st). That's crazy.

I remember when it first came out.

I remember watching the little astronaut plant the flag on the moon (and the flag turned all kinds of psychedelic colors).

I remember VJs.

I remember when my favorite game show was "Remote Control".

I remember when they had a contest for Madonna's "True Blue" video. They played all of the entries (or at least the finalists) for days on end.

I remember how cool "Thriller" was. (and that it was 14 minutes long!)

I remember how cool Peter Gabriel's "Big Time" video was.

I remember the 3D animated video for Dire Straits' "Money for Nothing" when Sting sang:

"I want my MTV"
